“It’s basically a weekend clinic,” said Practice Administrator Kyle Ragor. “We’ll be open Friday through Monday each week and just like our other locations we’ll treat any orthopedic problems.”

Located at 706 Summit Crossing Place, the office is OrthoCarolina’s seventh urgent care location, Ragor said, and joins other company locations in Ballantyne, Concord, Matthews and Monroe, as well as the university and uptown areas of Charlotte.

The clinic will be open from 5:30 to 9 p.m. on Monday and Friday, and from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. The location will be closed Tuesday through Thursday, Ragor said.

“I’m confident this location will succeed because our service is important to the community, and Gastonia is continuing to grow,” Ragor said. “Youth sports like soccer and baseball are becoming more popular, as well, so there’s a lot going on and we’ll be here for them.”
